I'm a software engineer with 15+ years of experience, currently leading AI/Automation at a marketing agency in Los Angeles. My focus is on building scalable AI workflows, streamlining ops, and integrating LLM-based systems to drive real business value.

Led automation of internal workflows

Built AI-powered customer support bots

Integrated LLMs for smarter decision-making

If you're exploring how AI can give your team an edge, I'd love to chat. Here's a quick way to connect:

Schedule a 15-min call

Also shared a short audio resume

Am I the only one who found it ugly?


why nobody tries KDE or GNOME?


KDE and GNOME weren't as popular as Windows 7. Unless you mean porting Windows 7 to KDE as a theme?


they also change theming too quickly sometimes. windows 7 is set, it's not going to change, ever


Superb. I always refer GPT to learn about what I need to do with ffmpeg. Glad to see someone made an AI wrapper out of it.

PS: Yeah, ffmpeg is not an easy tool to use.


I don't get why the articles behind paywalls are shared here.


they killed the web, not the AI.


One of the things I've been wondering about with the 'digital detox' trends or one of the younger generations getting dumbphones instead of smart, is why haven't the papers found some way of turning back the clock to explore capitalizing on that when it's supposedly hard to sell news now. 24 hour news is decades old at this point and the constant firehose of events from every location on the globe is tiring especially if only a tiny fraction is directly relevant to you. I'd be interesting if they could make a more attractive 'news/analysis product' like a newspaper or the evening news broadcast which is distinct from what is readily available from all the other sources.


Any day now some smartass is going to start selling analogue newspapers like hotcakes. Speaking of, I wonder how much I can get neohipsters to pay for hotcakes on the street. Slapjacks, I'll call them . . .


So a recommendation engine hooked up to news articles. Google News already exists.


It's the other way around. Paywalls are a result of the web and the Ad companies which power it killing the revenue models of publishers. AI, which steals even more and repackages their content, will make it worse.


What I don't understand is why nobody has actually figured this out. I read a lot of different news sources. I'd have no problem paying a reasonable amount of money to read an article I came across in the Podunk Picayune that looked of interest, but no, I have to sign up for a subscription. So they get nothing.


Yeah, just share the archive link directly.


Canonical links are preferred, per guidelines. Paywalled sites that are otherwise on topic with a workaround are usually allowed.

Totally agree, here is something is use to read without paywalls https://archive.ph/2021.09.10-164025/https://www.bostonglobe...


Because paywalls are optional, at least for a crowd such as the HN crowd. Information wants to be free.


Will be using AI to summarize this HN disucssion and finding insights.


Exploring n8n these days for automation/AI Agents. I am a software developer, but I enjoy this no-code/semi-code tool, already found a few use cases via Upwork and SEMRush that I am going to implement.

Besides, I have initiated two series on my blog: T4P and GenAI on my blog and writing about Algo trading and GenAI stuff(https://blog.adnansiddiqi.me/)

PS: If anyone has any interesting ideas, then do ping me


I guess it'd work even if you make it 2.5 or evebn 3x.


> Am I the only one who actually dislikes the recent trend of putting emojis everywhere in CLI tools?

No.

I’m a senior developer (14+ yrs) focused on automating boring business processes—chatbots, data pipelines, scraping, AI tools, internal bots, CRM workflows, etc.

Past work includes:

* Scraping millions of records weekly at a California startup * Ticket analysis bot using LLMs (cause, accountability, delay reasons) * Internal bot reading from CRM, ticketing, and brand guides * Chat transcript → lead → auto-sync to GoHighLevel * Voiceflow/OpenAI tools with ChatGPT-style frontend

Currently lead AI automation at a LA-based agency. I build full-stack AI tools and workflow automations (code/no-code).

Let’s build something useful:
